10.8: Setting Dispense Pump Limits
If the linear pot bracket is replaced, the system will require reset of upper and lower limits to ensure
proper functionality.
Note that this screen should not be used except in rare cases. Shut the
machine off when replacing the linear pot bracket as described in 10.7: Linear Potentiometer
Replacement .
For more detail about usage of the user interface, refer to the Operation Manual 77-2984 .
1. If the rod assembly
does not travel the
full distance, the
travel limits may need
to be reset. Go to the
Dispense Pump
Calibration screen by
using the Advanced
password.
2. Using the JOG UP
button, move the
pump rod assembly
upwards so the
indicator moves near the top of the indicating slot. Pressing the JOG UP button will start and
stop this action. The value in the center of the screen indicates the current rod position.
3. To set the upper limit, the last command used must have been JOG UP. If this is the case,
simply press the “save” button to set the upper limit. This value should be about .85; it will
show on the left side of the screen.
4. To set the lower limit use the JOG DOWN button. When the middle value shows about 3.8,
press JOG DOWN again to stop the movement. Press “save” to set the lower limit. It will
show on the right side of the setup screen.
5. The Dispense Pump should be calibrated and ready to use after completing the previous
step. To verify this, go to the Home screen, and then navigate to the PRIME screen. Press
PRIME and verify that the dispense pump travels up and down through the limits that were
just set. If not, return to step 4 and repeat the procedure.
Be careful not to allow the motor to continue running when the indicator is near the top or bottom of
the slot. Motor damage may occur. Use caution when performing this step.
